The decision reportedly comes amid concerns about Israel's push to invade the southern Gaza city of Rafah.

We’ve been very clear 
 from the very beginning that Israel shouldn’t launch a major attack into Rafah without accounting for and protecting the civilians that are in that battlespace, Lloyd Austin, United States Defense Secretary, via Al Jazeera.

We’ve not made a final determination on how to proceed with that shipment [of weapons], Lloyd Austin, United States Defense Secretary, via Al Jazeera.

‘They’ll Regret This’: Putin Roars After 9/11-Style Attack in Kazan Hits Civilians, Warns Ukraine

Russian President Vladimir Putin has issued a stern warning to Ukraine following a dramatic 9/11-style drone attack on Kazan, the capital of Tatarstan. The December 21 assault, involving eight drones, targeted residential buildings and an industrial facility, causing significant damage but no casualties. In response, Putin vowed harsh retaliation, promising that those responsible "will face many times greater destruction in their own country" and "will regret" their actions. He assured Tatarstan's leader, Rustam Minnikhanov, that all damages would be swiftly repaired. The Russian Defense Ministry reported that the attack was carried out in three waves using fixed-wing drones, with air defenses intercepting three and electronic warfare systems neutralizing another three. This unprecedented assault, deep within Russian territory and 1,379 kilometers from Ukraine, has escalated tensions further, drawing sharp condemnation from Moscow. #Putin #KazanAttack #KazanDroneAttack #UkraineConflict #DroneStrike #RussianRetaliation #Tatarstan #PutinWarning #Kiev #RussiaUkraineWar #IDF #TerroristAttack #RussianDefense #CiviliansUnderAttack #KazanStrike #PutinVows Also Read Drone Targets Israeli Prime Minister's House as Strikes in Gaza Result in Over 50 Casualties :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/drone-targets-israeli-prime-minister-house-gaza-strikes-011-3965047.html?ref=DMDesc Iran Downplays Drone 'Attack', States Israel Link Not Established :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/iran-downplays-drone-attack-states-israel-link-not-established-3804551.html?ref=DMDesc Significant Missile and Drone Attack Demolishes Major Ukrainian Power Plant :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/massive-attack-destroys-ukraine-power-plant-011-3797587.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.152~ED.102~HT.336~GR.125~

Putin’s Beginning of WWIII? U.S Warns 50,000 Russian, North Korean Troops Ready to Invade Ukraine

As tensions escalate in Eastern Europe, U.S. officials have raised alarms about the growing military presence along the Russian-Ukrainian border. The Pentagon has warned that up to 50,000 troops, consisting of Russian forces and North Korean soldiers, are preparing to launch an offensive against Ukraine. According to U.S. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin, these troops are being integrated into Russian military units in the Kursk region, located near the border with Ukraine. Austin expressed concerns that these forces could soon be engaged in combat, signalling a dangerous escalation in the ongoing war. The buildup of these foreign troops, along with reports of Russia providing North Korea with oil, anti-aircraft missiles, and economic aid in exchange for military support, has raised fears of a significant intensification of hostilities. As the conflict continues to evolve, both Russia and North Korea have become increasingly intertwined in military strategy, with the possibility of further destabilising the region. Ukraine, still recovering from its initial offensives, remains on high alert as this new threat looms large. #PutinsWWIII #RussianTroops #NorthKoreanTroops #UkraineConflict #USDefense #WorldWar3 #KurskRegion #RussianInvasion #MilitaryEscalation #UkraineWar #PutinWar #NorthKorea #EasternEuropeTensions #RussianAlliance #USResponse ~PR.152~ED.194~HT.336~GR.344~

Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has rejected claims that groups like Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthis act as proxy forces for Tehran. Speaking on Sunday, Khamenei emphasized that these groups operate independently based on their own interests and decisions, while acknowledging Iran’s support for their causes. Hezbollah in Lebanon, Hamas in Palestine, and the Houthis in Yemen are often accused by Western nations of serving as Iran’s regional proxies to expand its influence. However, Khamenei dismissed such accusations, stressing that these organizations are motivated by local grievances and ideological commitments, not Iranian directives. #Iran #Khamenei #IranProxies #MiddleEast #Hezbollah #Hamas #Houthis #ProxyForce #IranianPolicy #RegionalConflicts #Geopolitics #IranSupport #IndependentGroups #MiddleEastTensions #IranianInfluence #AyatollahKhamenei Also Read Syria's Future: Insights from the Arab Spring's Democratic Transitions :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/syrias-future-lessons-from-arab-spring-nations-011-4022149.html?ref=DMDesc Iran Halts Implementation of New Stricter Headscarf Law Amid Protests Concerns :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/iran-pauses-strict-headscarf-law-implementation-011-4018843.html?ref=DMDesc Iranian Singer Parastoo Ahmady Arrested For Performing In Online Youtube Concert Without Hijab :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/iran-singer-arrested-performing-online-concert-without-hijab-011-4016049.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.152~ED.103~HT.336~GR.121~
